May 25, 2018 - At first, a little exotic and botrytized smell like Sauternes
Apricot, Dried, Tropical Fruit, Buttery
After breathing it smells of Seconday flavor.
Mint, Floral, White Spices, Honey and Petrol
in palate
Rich and Intense fruit flavor
But also Detailed and Energetic acidity
Long Finish
Masterpiece! -

September 25, 2015 - Nineteen vintages of DRC Montrachet: The 1988 was an ex chateau bottle, but I wasn't feeling it at all. A few thought me bonkers, but that's happened many times before. It simply didn't move me.

February 10, 2010 - Honeysuckle aroma. Rich, smooth, clean, a little tired, very good initially. Madeira notes appear after an hour. Tasted with AdV; wine source from the domaine.
